Is Chasing PBs Ruining Our Mental Wellbeing?

On this week's episode of The Running Channel Podcast the team discuss whether chasing PBs all the time is affecting the joy we get from running. How does social media and the pressure we put on ourselves to perform affect our mental wellbeing? And importantly, what can we do about it?

This is a special live edition of the podcast hosted at ASICS Oxford Street. Thanks to ASICS for the support.
